Why do not ask your admin to install VirtualBox for you so you can install F12 on as a virtual machine if you have enough RAM (2GB - 1GB for XP, one for F12) ;)

You don't install F12 from within XP so as long as you can boot from a CD/DVD this won't be an issue. Just boot from a F12 LiveCD and the installer should sort it all out for you - this is called "Dual Boot", each time the computer starts you have the choice to run F12 or Windows XP (one will be set as a default and you will have 10 seconds to make a decision when the screen comes up).
